What to Focus On

  • Blood vascular system and lymph vascular system are the two parts of circulation.
  • Open circulation occurs in arthropods and molluscs.
  • Closed circulation occurs in annelids and vertebrates.

  • Heart is the central pumping station of the blood vascular system.
  • The human heart has four chambers.
  • The left ventricle has a thicker wall than the right ventricle.

  • SA node is the pacemaker of the heart.
  • AV node receives the impulse from SA node and passes it onward.
  • Bundle of His divides into right and left branches.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

The SA node and AV node do the same job, so either one can be called the pacemaker of the heart.

The right AV valve is bicuspid and the left AV valve is tricuspid.

The heart pumps only oxygenated blood to the body and deoxygenated blood never enters the heart.
